 We are planning to operate a batch reactor to convert A

We are planning to operate a batch reactor to convert A into R. This is a liquid phase reaction, the stoichiometry is AR, and the rate of reaction is given in the following table. (a) How long must we carry out the reaction for the concentration to drop from CA0=1.3 mol/ liter to CAf=0.3mol/liter (b) For the same system, what size plug flow reactor would be needed for 80% conversion of a feed stream of 1000molA/hr at CAO=1.3mol/ liter? (c) What size of mixed flow reactor is needed for 75% conversion of a feed stream of 1000 molA/hr at CA0=1.3mol/ liter
